My parents Corsa D has the dreaded yellow spanner up and is very down on power - apparently there may be water in the fuel filter so needs checking.
Anybody know where to find the bugger?
Cheers

I personally haven't looked - Dad's been poking about whilst I was out today and since given up.
Will take a look. Cheers
Have since done a bit more googling and found that if it's not the fuel filter, it's likely to be an electrical fault - back to VX under warranty then!

Being a Diesel, it will be in the engine bay, not at the tank like a petrol car.
You should be able to follow the fuel lines to the filter housing which is slightly larger than a coke can.
The paper filter element will sit in there.

Yeah, in the bay.
My fuel filter is ametal canister with a water drain tap on the bottom.
